Treatment of reference of severe alcoholic hepatitis is based on corticosteroids, given for 28 days. However, about 25-35% of patients do not take benefit from this treatment and die within the 6 months following the diagnosis. Numerous trials have evaluated the impact of several strategies in association with corticosteroids. None of them has shown an improvement in survival (primary endpoint) as compared to corticosteroids alone.
The project is based on an approach never tested in a randomized controlled trial in severe alcoholic hepatitis, targeting the group of patients at high risk of death (25-35% at 2 months). This approach is based on animal and human studies.Antibiotics are effective in animal models and in other circumstances characterized by liver failure such as gastrointestinal bleeding related to portal hypertension. The interest of studying this population is emphasized by the frequency of infections in these critically ill patients. Antibiotics will be administered before the development of any infection, as it is likely that these patients present with mesenteric bacterial adenitis without systemic signs of infection. Primary endpoint will be 2-month survival as most deaths occur within 60 days and treatment is given for 30 days.
This is a multicenter double-blind randomized controlled study on two parallel groups.
Once inclusion and exclusion criteria verified and after having obtained patient written consent, participative centers will process to inclusion in the trial.
Corticosteroids as well as antibiotics or their placebo will be started orally. Patients will be managed in the hospital unit until day 7, which corresponds to the evaluation of response to treatment using the Lille model. After this 7-day period, patients will be followed-up at day 14, day 21, day 30, day 60 (primary endpoint).
During each visit, biological and clinical features including efficacy and tolerance will be assessed as well as presence of infection and hepatorenal syndrome (secondary endpoints).
